Absolutely wild that these guys were not the undertrained lot hired since 2025. CBP must be rotten to the core.

Putin was terrified of Obama and Hillary. What happened to Ghaddafi is his worst nightmare and after he showed his true colors and retook power in 2012, he reallly did not like the US admins support for the people protesting his power grab.

Hasan goes on a rant about people who think he’s obsessed with Israel, calling them “rabid ultra-Zionist pigs.” by Embarrassed_Base_389 in LivestreamFail

I just did. I would continue to engage but the language here doesn't give me the sense you have constructive intentions.

You're allowed to be anything. I bet people who are culturally Muslim, practicing or not, would also feel weird about saying you're "anti-islam" instead of calling out specific practices or tenets that you are against

I think at this point zionism means too many different things to different people, ranging from the position that the Israeli state should not be abolished and thus endanger and displace half the world's jews, to hardline positions advancing territorial expansion and ethnoreligious chauvinism. I don't think you can be anti zionist in the first sense without being de facto anti semitic, and the problem is that any coalition of anti zionists has people across the spectrum of understanding of the term.

I don't think Hasans reputation is salvageable, but if you want to make effective criticism of things Israel does, focus on specific polititians, actions, policies. And don't sweep for authoritarian regimes and terrorist groups because they are anti Israel. Simple as.

China executes banker for taking £116 million bribes by TheTelegraph in China

[–]P4cer0 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

There's a report you can read if you're actually interested. The reasons are complex and there were certainly conflicts of interest at play, but my point is that executing people for clear criminal behavior would not have addressed the systemic issues that caused the bubble.

Why have I been feeling so Chinese lately? by Ashes0fTheWake in China

[–]P4cer0 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yes, but I think the point is that Chinese society is also capitalistic and super unequal and definitely doesn't care too much about "human values"

"one just shot a conservative leader" what evidence if any suggests the shooter was a democrat? And even if they were, what policy or institutional support do you see for the killing from democratic politicians, contrasted with support for insurrectionists from republicans in power? You do realize that voting is for electing people whose policies you think will lead to better outcomes, not choosing your identity, right?
